House Of Hardcore Attendance #’s, The Sandman Backstage?

– Both House of Hardcore events this weekend drew in the range of 1,300 people. The promotion was happy with the attendance. Philadelphia ticket sales were reportedly slow early but picked up in the last week. There was also a decent walk-up crowd.

The producers were reportedly thrilled with how the show will come across when its edited.
